Federers slams came mainly by avoiding playing Nadal . On the other hand Nadal has had to face Federer in a majority of his slams.....and Federer was in every single slam that Nadal ever played in .
But the #1 ranking is bs in my opinion . I'm tired of repeating it ad nauseum so please scroll up.
Are we speaking English here? Yes, English as the language, not some kind of alien dialect. Are
YOU speaking English too?
"...avoid playing Nadal": For the hundred thousand times, 90'Clay and you seem to love
using that expression w/o understanding it. Here: if Fed was already in a GS final by making through his own half, he was there to play. If Rafa was NOT there in the same final, he COULD NOT play Fed. Any LOGICAL, AND INTELLIGENT person looked at it and will conclude
"Rafa AVOIDED Fed, not the other way around. Now your bs litany of excuses such as skipped this, skipped that, injured here, injured there, still too young are just...BS excuses.
Now for the hundred thousand times,
where is the damn comparo of GS finals that I asked? Remember, the one where your invincible Rafa was NOT (
NOT IS THE KEYWORD HERE) whereas the slew of weak players such as Roddick, Safin, Hewitt, Philippoussis made it through their own half.
"#1 ranking:bs". Humm, perhaps yes, perhaps no. It still stands AS OF TODAY that
Fed has been #1 much MUCH longer than Rafa.
To be in the GOAT discussion, a player MUST do EVERYTHING BETTER than the guy in front of him, not only H2H, not only winning on 1 surface.
EVERYTHING BETTER. In that regard, Rafa<Fed and has a long way to go.
Now are we speaking English? Where's the DAMN comparo? Put it up with the emphasis where Rafa was in that particular tourney. We want to see it.
